district attorney, within the limits oi
Boise county there had occurred
some 60 deaths by violence without
single conviction for murder in the
first degree. So late as January
1866, there was no territorial prison
in Idaho and no prison facilities for
the safe keeping of territorial prison
ers other than the provisions that the
county iails Of Boise and Nez Perce
should be considered temporarily.
On the night of April Z, 1866,
Clark was taken from the guard
house at Boise City by some 20
masked men and hanged just outside
the town, upon glbbet constructed
W tn three poles. Pinned to one OF
the poles was the following notice:
No. /.
"Justice has now commenced her
rig hteous work. This suffering COM
munity which has already lain too
long under the ban of ruffianism,
shall now be renovated of its thieves
and assassins. Forbearance has =
last ceased to be a virtue, and an
outraged community has most solemn
ly resolved on self protection. Let
this mans fate be terrible warning
to all his kind, for the argus eye OF
justice is no more sure to see than
to strike. The soil of this beautiful
valley shall no longer be desecrated
by the presence of thieves and assas-
sins. This fatal example has no ter
ror for the innocent, but let the
guilty beware, and not delay to long,
and take warning. xxx"
On Saturday, April 14th, 1866, the

The Phonograph.

ten years ago. THAT" he says, twas
more or less toy. The germ of
something wonderful was perfectly
distinct, but l tried the impossible
with it, and when the electric light
business assumed commercial impor-
lance | threw everything overheard
for that. Nevertheless, the phono-
graph has been constantly in mind
ever since. When testing from pro-
longed work upon light my brain
was found to revert almost automati-
cally to the old idea. Since the light
has been finished have taken up the
photograph. and after eight months
of steady work have made it COM
merc,al invention. My photograph
expect to see in every business of
fee. The first 500 will l hope, be
ready for distribution about the end
Of January. Their operation is sim
plicity itself and cannot fail. The
merchant or clerk who wishes to send
letter has only to set the machine
in motion and to talk in his natural
voice at the usual rate of speed into
a receiver. When he has finished
the sheet or phonogram, as call it
it is ready for putting into a little
box made on purpose for mails.

sizes-one for letters of from 800 to
900 words, another for 1000 words

Dr. Jno. 7. Williams, our popular
physician, is no longer the room
mate of the editor. He left here on
Wednesday morning for Raleigh,
where he was married on Thursday
afternoon to Miss Mary Z. Killian,
one Of Raleigh's best favored daugh-
tiers. He arrived home with his bride
yesterday morning, and was given a
reception last night at Mrs. Bratton's,
by the Boquet Social Club, where
Mrs. Williams was given cordial
welcome to our city. They have our
hearty congratulations and best wishes
for long, prosperous and happy life.

To Business Men.

We call the attention of the bust
ness men of this city to the value of
the MESSENGER as an advertising me-
dunn. There are about 5000 colored
people in this city, and nearly all of
them are to some extent influenced by
this paper. Will it not pay you to
ask for a share of their patronage
through their own organ? The colOred
people spend not less than $4,000
a week here for clothing, groceries,
&c, and their trade is principally
eesh. The MESSENGER advises AMI
urges its readers to patronize the
stores that advertise with us. Several
of our best houses have found it ex-
pedient to keep their advertisement
in our columns.
THE MESSENGER reaches large
class of people VIII spend II Oh money
that cannot be reached by any other
paper in the city. Is not this worth
your consideration Our rates are
very low, and it will certainly pay
you to advertise in the MESSENGER.
We have a good circulation in the
city and county, as well as all the
neighbOring towns.
Our policy and politics are not d.
rected to suit the business men, but
our readers. If our politics were
anything than what they are We would
have no readers. Business men want
to reach the public, they care not by
what source. Advertise in the MIS-
sENGER. If

Voting for Preachers.

Two weeks ago Grace church men,
bers were called to meet their dele
gate to the District Conference, and
signify to him their wishes as to pas
tor for the next Conference year.
DIR. J. T. Williams. the delegate, was
present. and noted an unanimous vote
for the return of Rev. r. II. Slit.
Presiding Elder Rives' administration
was unanimously approved, the church
being satisfied with his administration
Clinton Chapel voted on last Sun
dey night for the return of Rev. NJ.
Slade, but refused to endorse Elder
Rives' administration. The church
voted for Elder J. \. Tyler for Pre-
siding Elder.
There seems to be a mistaken idea
with some of our people concerning
the presiding elders as well calling
pastors. We understand that the pre-
siding elders viii rotate as our Bish'
ops do, from one district to another
1t is not supposed that Elder Rivei
will return to this district, but will b.
followed by Elder Tyler, or neither
may be sent here, for they may not b.
presiding elders next year. As I
mark Of respect to Elder Rives, itw
expected the churches would approve
bis course by complimentary vote
Let that be as it may. loyal pcopl'

Let usTHaye Peace,

Last winter much was said by the
church people of this city that reflect
ed no credit upon anyone. Many un-
necessary and hurtful things were said
and many questions discussed, but it
has been finally decided that the course
taken by each side was right, except
the talking, and I'M that, all were wrong.
Now that peace has reigned among
us so long it is earnestly hoped that
there is now religion, love and charity
enough in protesting Christians to take
all to God in player.
There are wicked, unreliable, I'M
principled men, profaning on the
street corners, endeayoring to raise
strife among the brethren. We all
know these thing can do none of us
any good. then why give them our
attention and talk after them? When
we all know man is believed by no
one, and that he is a common liar,
why trouble your brother by repeat
ing that mans words? o, how pleas
ant it is for brethren 70 dwell together
in unity.
Then we would urge upon the i'm
portance of peace. Death is sum-
moning some one home every day.
Can we be prepared to meet God in
peace if we are not in peace with our
brethren? The time for strife has
passed and we ought all to live in
peace and brotherly love. Christians
cannot prove their religion by talk
ing, but they must live in love with
the brethren and in the fear of God.
